We live with a shared belief that unborn babies benefit from listening to classical music but we can’t come to a consensus that they deserve life.

When I was pregnant 40 years ago I had a wonderful doctor who advised me to play music, mostly classical for my unborn daughter. I did this from about 3 months and in the later stages of my pregnancy I could feel my daughter moving, almost dancing to this beautiful music. Everyone around me thought that I was a little bit crazy even my mother who had seven children. I believe that this made me acutely aware of the early life of my beautiful baby. Thank you Dr. Delke for being my hero and for recognizing my baby as the wonderful human being that she was from conception to now. She grew up to be the beautiful woman and the professional musician that she is now.
